Flights of Fantasy $41.51 Includes episode logs for radio and television, complete storylines for two unproduced TV episodes, and dozens of "deleted scenes" taken right from the scripts "Michael J. Hayde significantly broadens our empathy for The Man of Steel through his profound revelations surrounding an imposing figure based on popular myth. In a meticulously researched discourse, he supplies the gaps about a character that became a mid 20th century hero to the nation’s boys and girls. Hayde probes the backgrounds of the real-life individuals behind-the-scenes and before the microphones and cameras that intensified that aura. In breezy, comprehensive style, he focuses on the radio and TV manifestations while interweaving timely inferences from the newspaper strip, comics, books, film and other formats plus a prosperous merchandising trade. Lovers of the genre of juvenile adventures are rewarded by the author’s efforts to expose how one man wearing a cape and bearing incredible strength could pervade an impressionable younger generation and a society that pursued his exploits intensely." – Jim Cox, author of Radio Crime Fighters "With so many books about Superman out there, it’s pleasing to know that one book has everything you’d want to know under one cover. Trivia, background production and numerous behind-the-scenes stories make this a must-have for everyone’s shelf.

Flights of Love: Stories $3.95 Bernhard Schlink brings to these seven superbly crafted stories the same sleek concision and moral acuity that made "The Reader" an international bestseller.

The friendship between a West Berliner and an idealistic young couple from the East founders amid the prosperity and revelations that follow the collapse of communism. An acrobatic philanderer (one wife and two mistresses, all apparently quite happy) begins to crack under the weight of his abundance.

Singapore: A Biography $34.99 "Singapore: A Biography" takes you there — to those critical moments in the island’s past, as captured through the personal accounts of people who actually lived through them. Encounter violent unrest on the city’s streets, the jostling down its corridors of power, the high life of its up-and-coming elites, and the daily struggles of existence that lay beyond its five-foot ways, in an epic drama that stretches back over seven centuries. Grounded in scholarship yet fired by the imagination, this book tells a new Singapore story — one more dramatic, complex and engrossing than you might expect.Singapore was not always the orderly and successful city-state that it appears to be now. Over the last seven centuries, the island has undergone several changes of identity. In this entertaining and wide-ranging account, drawn from research undertaken in collaboration with the National Museum of Singapore, Mark Ravinder Frost and Yu-Mei Balasingamchow present Singapore’s mercurial life-story as experienced by the people who participated in it. Singapore: A Biography brings together a Ming-dynasty travelogue, 19th-century memoirs and correspondence, modern oral histories and even radio and television broadcasts to reconnect a contemporary audience with the Singapore story.While famous names from Singapore’s past take their place, this new story also introduces a cast of lesser known, though no less compelling, historical personalities — from dissenting poets and radical ideologues, to patriotic factory workers and early feminists. The portrait of Singapore that emerges is dashing, lively and multi-layered, and it offers fresh insight into the ruptures and continuities that have made Singaporeans and their nation what they are today. |

Flights of the Vout Bug $31.24 In 1956 producer Lyle Griffin released a two-sided single record by the comedian and monologist Richard "Lord" Buckley under the futuristic title "Flight of The Saucer." Having become a cult record long since, this early predecessor of the later ‘rap’ style at least partly was a recycled version of a recording, which had already been made by Griffin in late 1946, only that the ‘flying object’ then had not been the saucer but the vout bug. Actually flying on this older record was legendary jazz pianist Michael "Dodo" Marmarosa, for whom "Flight of The Vout Bug" – suggesting at least verbally some kind of analogy to Rimsky-Korsakov’s "Bumble Bee" – had been written as a miniature concertino for piano and big band. Marmarosa certainly was not unknown then, nor is he today. Yet his many ‘flights’ on records or transcriptions from the 1940s to the 1960s – including some of Slim Gaillard’s humorous excursions into the language of "Vout" – have never been completely documented in a comprehensive and chronological catalogue, which is the task the authors have set themselves with the present publication. The approach to this task is twofold: on one side is a detailed discographical listing of the pianist’s known recorded performances and on the other an interpretative survey, which seeks to guide the listener’s ear to some of the intrinsic artistic values of Marmarosa’s ever-beautiful and highly personal piano style. This is the never before published discography and history of a legendary performer. |

Symbol of Singapore $66.91 The lion head symbol was introduced in 1986 as an alternative national symbol of Singapore. The lion head was chosen as a logo, as it best captures, the characteristics of Singapores reputation as a Lion City. It is used in less formal occasions mainly to promote Singapores national identity. When it was first unveiled, some sections of the public felt that it should have been facing rightwards to represent a more forward looking nature. However, the original leftfacing lion was maintained. In the 13thcentury Malay Annals, Sang Nila Utama, a prince from Palembang was shipwrecked and washed ashore to an island. There he saw a creature which he believed was a lion. So he named the island Singa Pura (in Tamil language Singa puram) which means Lion City in Malay, from which the name Singapore was derived.The lion head symbolises courage, strength and excellence, as well as resilience in the face of challenges.

Cheap Diamonds $3.95 Norris Church Mailer triumphantly returns to the page with this breezy, hilarious novel of discovery and destiny. Set against the backdrop of 1970s New York City, "Cheap Diamonds" follows a sweet young girl from the South who risks it all to fulfill her heart’s desire. Cherry Marshall seeks a life beyond the confines of her Arkansas world. "Sweet Valley was not the place for a girl with stars in her eyes, and I had stars big enough to blind me." Leaving behind all the comforts-and problems-of home, she sets out to enter the New York modeling world at the advanced age of twenty-two. At "five-twelve," with unusually white eyebrows, the platinum-blond beauty may be a little too unique to fit in with the latest crop of all-American girls dominating the magazines of the era. Yet aided by her Southern smarts, her drive, and a touch of country naivete, Cherry finds herself in the right place at the right time-and with all the right people. There’s makeup artist Salvador, who moonlights as "Miss Sally"; Suzan Hartman, a model turned agency head and fellow Arkansan; Mrs. Digby, Cherry’s eccentric landlady, a former Ziegfeld girl; Aurelius, a saxophonist and neighbor who piques Cherry’s romantic interests; and Lale, a hunk from back home who skipped out on his fiancee, Cherry’s friend Cassie, to become an underwear model. It all unfolds like a dream-this new world where men have boyfriends, and paintings of soup cans pass for art. As Cherry’s star begins to rise, she finds herself at Max’s Kansas City among Andy Warhol’s glamorous crowd, dining at Elaine’s, and drawing the attention of high society. But their sophisticated, sometimes shallow ways are often at odds with Cherry’s homegrown values. The line between right and wrong blurs, and the ingenue will discover how far she’s willing to go to stay on top. Mailer vividly captures a thrilling era when New York City was the burgeoning center of art and fashion, when being young and beautiful was the only currency one needed for survival. Smartly written, full of humor and hope, "Cheap Diamonds" reminds us that no matter where we travel in life, we are never very far from home. "From the Hardcover edition." |

Singapore Stories: Language, Class, and the Chinese of Singapore, 1945-2000 $144.25 The history of Singapore has been widely conflated with the history of its economic success. From its heyday as a nexus of trade during the imperial era to the modern city state that boasts high living standards for most of its citizens, the history of Singapore is commonly viewed through the lens of the ruling elite. Published in two volumes in 1998 and 2000, Lee Kuan Yew’s memoirs The Singapore Story epitomizes this top-down definitive narrative of the nation’s past. The history of post-war Singapore has largely been reduced to a series of decisions made by the nation’s leaders. Few existing studies explore the role and experiences of the ordinary person in Singapore’s post-war history. There are none that do this through ethnography, oral history, and collective biography. In a critical study that has no parallel among existing works on Singapore history, this book dispenses with the homogenous historical experience that is commonly presumed in the writing of Singapore’s national past after 1945 and explores how the enforcement of a uniform language policy by the Singapore government for cultural and economic purposes has created underappreciated social and economic divides among the Chinese of Singapore both between and within families. It also demonstrates how mapping distinct economic, linguistic, and cultural cleavages within Singaporean Chinese society can add new and critical dimensions to understanding the nation’s past and present. Chief among these, the author argues, are the processes behind the creation and entrenchment of class structures in the city state, such as the increasing value of English as a form of opportunity-generating capital. |
